Subject:field codes for ToC in Word From:Becca Price <becca_price -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:Techwr-l <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 25 Jul 2000 08:20:43 -0700 (PDT)
I've inherited a document that has passed through Many
Hands over many years before landing on my desk, and I
find a few things about it curious.. the main one is
that someone, at some time in the document's past,
used extensive field codes to create the table of
contents, rather than using levels to auto-generate
the toc.
Is there now, or was there once in MS Word's past, a
reason not to base a ToC on heading levels?
"God is not willing to do everything and thus deprive us
of our free will, and that share of glory which falls to
our lot." N. Machievelli, "The Prince" ch.26
